Lisa Hulsizer

Lisa Hulsizer is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Florida with 10 years of practice. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and major life changes. Lisa often supports teenagers and young adults as they move through challenging transitions. She uses a warm, straightforward style so clients feel heard and understood from the first session.

Her work covers a broad range of concerns including family conflict, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, eating concerns, parenting strain, and career stress. Lisa also addresses more specific areas such as body image, attachment and abandonment issues, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress. She adapts her approach to each person rather than following one fixed method.

Clinically she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Those methods are used to build practical skills, clarify values, challenge unhelpful thinking, and set small achievable goals. Sessions combine talking, skill practice, and real-life problem solving.

Lisa describes therapy as a collaborative process. She works with clients to set realistic goals and pace changes in a way that fits their daily life. Outside sessions she encourages small habits and experiments that help carry progress forward between visits.

On a personal note, she lives in central Florida with her fiance, a teenage daughter, a puppy, and six cats. Lisa enjoys video games, Marvel movies, and visiting nearby theme parks, and she looks forward to meeting new clients who are ready to make steady changes.

How Lisa’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, transitions, and when anxiety gets in the way of life goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing more balanced thoughts while building coping skills; it is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and behavior change. Client-Centered Therapy creates a supportive space where the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s pace, which can help when someone needs steady emotional support.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. Lisa will collaborate with each person to decide which approach or mix of approaches fits best, based on goals, preferences, and what shows progress. That plan can be adjusted over time as needs change.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins from different locations when scheduling is tight. Many people find that practical skill practice, values-based planning, and short between-session exercises translate well to remote sessions, helping progress continue between visits.
